Sporlan 401035 C-165-S Filter Drier

The Sporlan 401035 C-165-S Catch-All Filter Drier is a 16-cubic-inch molded core unit engineered to protect critical system components from moisture, acid, and solid contaminants. Featuring 5/8" ODF solder connections, this liquid line drier is a staple for technicians servicing residential and commercial HVACR equipment. The core utilizes a high-grade blend of molecular sieve for peak water capacity and activated alumina for the effective neutralization of organic and inorganic acids. With a 650 PSIG maximum working pressure, it is fully compatible with modern R-410A systems as well as R-22, R-134a, and R-404A/507. This uni-flo filter drier ensures a minimal pressure drop while capturing scale, sludge, and carbon deposits down to 20 microns. For contractors installing new equipment or performing a post-burnout cleanup, the C-165-S provides the filtration surface area and desiccant volume required to maintain long-term oil stability and compressor reliability.

• Unexcelled Contaminant Control: The premium molded porous core removes moisture and acid deep within the desiccant to prevent expansion valve freeze-ups and compressor failure.
• High Pressure Performance: UL listed for a 650 psi rated pressure, making it suitable for high-pressure HFC and HFO refrigerants.
• Robust Solid Filtration: Eliminates solder particles and dirt in a single pass, protecting the TXV orifice and internal compressor parts from abrasion.
• Sludge and Varnish Removal: Specially formulated to adsorb byproduct decomposition from refrigeration lubricants, maintaining oil quality.
• Solid Copper Fittings: 5/8" solder connections ensure easier high-temperature brazing without the risk of fitting damage.

• What is the tonnage rating for the C-165-S? This drier typically handles 1 to 5 tons for air conditioning field replacement and up to 7.5 tons for OEM self-contained systems, depending on the refrigerant used.
• Can this be used for burnout clean-ups? While the standard C-165-S is highly effective at removing acids, the "HH" core version is specifically optimized for severe burnout cleanup and wax removal.
• Is this unit bi-directional? No, the Sporlan C-165-S is a uni-flo liquid line drier. Reversing flow will significantly reduce filtration efficiency and may damage the internal core structure.
